Product Definition:
A stock image or video is a pre-made photograph or video clip that can be licensed by a third party for use in various commercial and noncommercial settings. The term generally refers to royalty-free content, which means the owner of the image or video has granted permission for anyone to use it without paying royalties. Stock images and videos are often used by businesses to create marketing materials such as website banners, social media posts, and brochures. They can also be used in television commercials and other forms of advertising.
Hardware:
Hardware is the tools or devices used to create digital images or videos. They are categorized into two types: input and output. The difference between them is that an input device records what happens in a real world environment, whereas an output device converts those signals into a form that can be displayed on a screen.
The hardware components involved in creating stock images and videos include cameras, lights, microphones, 3D scanners etc.
Software:
Software is the collection of tools and applications used for processing, creating, modifying or destroying digital data. In other words, it's a set of procedures or methods that are used to transform raw materials (data) into finished products (products). The most commonly used software in this market is Adobe Photoshop. It’s an image editing software that allows users to perform numerous operations on one or more images at the same time.
Application Insights:
The commercial application segment held the largest share of over 70.0% in 2017.

Prominent companies such as Microsoft Corporation; Starbucks Coffee Company; Inc.; Nike, Inc.; Facebook, LLP; Toyota Motor Corporation have been using global stock images and videos for their advertisements on a regular basis since past few years.
The editorial application segment is expected to register the fastest CAGR exceeding 11% from 2018 to 2030 owing to growing usage of stock imagery by magazines, newspapers and other print media outlets for illustrating stories or articles pertaining with a certain theme or issue at hand.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017 owing to the presence of a large number of key companies such as Adobe Systems Incorporated, Apple Inc., Google LLC, and Microsoft Corporation. The region is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. This can be attributed to increasing demand for stock images from small businesses and startups in this region.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increased adoption by startups for their business needs. Furthermore, growing awareness regarding copyright issues may propel regional growth during future years. Rising investments by international companies such as Google LLC; HTC Corporation; Nike, Inc.; and Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for visual content: The use of visuals has exploded in recent years, as businesses have come to realize the power of images and videos in capturing attention and engaging customers. This is particularly true on social media, where posts with visuals receive far more engagement than those without. As a result, the demand for high-quality stock images and videos is increasing rapidly.
- Rapid growth of online video: In addition to the overall trend toward more visual content, online video is growing at an astonishing rate. Cisco predicts that by 2019, 80% of all internet traffic will be video traffic. This means that businesses are increasingly looking for quality stock footage to use in their marketing campaigns and other initiatives.
